I guess one would say, “now for something completely different.”

Our imagination is one of the most important parts of our mind. It gives us the ability to see the impossible. It helps us see the unseen. Through our imagination we are given the opportunity to be creative. This is something that reflects the personality of God more than any thing else.
Our imaginations are so important, that the imagination has become a major battle ground for the destruction of humanity. No other time in history has it been more possible to access visual images, sounds, music, or material that is negative or defiling to the imagination.
Pornography and violence probably do more damage to the imagination than anything else. Both of these things become limits on the soul. There are millions of people today who have stunted or deadened because of their exposure to this heightened form of ugliness.
The holy imagination becomes a place where God can interface with us. When we have a cleansed imagination, we can hear the things God tells us, about ourselves, about the world, and about himself, and we can receive. Not only that, we begin to discover that nothing is impossible with God. Our wildest imaginations can be come reality. There are no limits to what God can do if we yield ourselves to him. The Bible talks about taking every thought captive to the will of God. This is how we maintain our imaginations. Paul tells us that “no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind as ever conceived the glorious things that God has prepared for those who have believed.”
If you feel you have defiled your imagination, you can pray the following prayer:
Lord Jesus, I have looked on things that were unholy, and I have been defiled by them. I know that my imagination is the platform you use to change me, and change the world. I give me imagination to you, and I ask you, by the power of the Holy Spirit, to cleanse the imaginations of my heart.
(if images begin to appear, take your hand, and pull them out of your thoughts, keep doing this till no more appear.)
Thank you for healing my imagination, help me to hear, see, and do what you want me to do. Fill my imagination with a sense of the holy, the good, and the beautiful, in Jesus name. Amen.

It is so humbling to see how God keeps using the red envelope.

I am reminded of Psalm 110:3, “Many will volunteer in the day of your power.”

Check out one of the smartest ads that I have seen in a long time. It took one party government for some smart creative people to rise up.

This may be our finest hour.

Lisa Hannigan had some paper engineers design some amazing popup books to tell the story of her song “Lille.” Here is the link to Lisa’s video on Youtube. It is worth your time. May her tribe increase!
